The guide allows visitors to choose between guided tours and exploring on their own. At selected locations, they experience AR simulations that bring the past to life. With the help of our OCR text recognition function, visitors can also access in-depth knowledge digitally by scanning terms from wall texts with their cell phone camera.
AR experiences – history becomes tangible
The augmented reality experiences are a particular highlight of the app: Visitors travel through German-German history on the “Wunderbus”. In addition, Mirko Drotschmann alias “MrWissen2Go” accompanies visitors as a digital AR guide and vividly conveys everyday life in the camp at the time.
Deepen knowledge via scan
The former emergency reception center has a lot to tell. But how do you convey historical depth without wall texts becoming excessive?
We have developed a feature that links analog exhibition texts with explanations within the app. Technically, this “Object Character Recognition” works by storing glossary terms in the CMS. If one of these terms appears in a wall text and a visitor scans it with their cell phone camera, the word is recognized. A page with further information then opens.
